Chapter 56

Time flies, half a year has passed in a blink of an eye.

From the second half of 1989 to the first half of 1990, the God of Gamblers Gao Jin defeated the Singapore gambling king Chen Jincheng.

But in the summer of 1990, a major event happened in world football, because the No.14 World Cup came.

The 1990 World Cup was held in Italy, the most popular place for European football. The Italian Football League is also nicknamed the "Little World Cup" because it has the highest level among the five major European leagues.This World Cup is very classic, because many superstars of later generations made their debut in this World Cup, and they have a pivotal position in the history of world football.

On this day, two uninvited guests arrived at the Milan International Airport in Italy. They were Guo Lingfeng and Chen Xiaodao who hadn't shown up for a long time.

Guo Lingfeng and Chen Xiaodao have followed Gao Jin to his villa in Las Vegas since they joined Gao Jin to study systematically.In the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed, and the two of them have practiced the basic skills of playing cards, mahjong and dice very solidly.

Gao Jin is proficient in many gambling techniques, among which these three are the best.Gao Jin also taught the two of them all the various skills in Qianmen. Although he never played Qian, but if he wanted to talk about Qian's skills, few people in the entire world of gambling dared to prestige in front of him.

Guo Lingfeng and Chen Xiaodao had already started frequenting the major casinos in Las Vegas three months ago, because Gao Jin hoped that they could experience more actual combat. Hard training behind closed doors can develop superb skills, but without actual combat Can never become a master.

The two never fell in love with each other, and each time they won enough to win 20 US dollars, they would immediately leave.As a gambler, you must keep a low profile.Just like Gao Jin as the God of Gamblers, although he has long been famous in the gambling circle, there are only a handful of people who really know him.

After three months of actual casino combat, both of them felt that their level had improved a lot.It was not all smooth sailing for them. Guo Lingfeng once met a master. They met at the same baccarat table, and there were five other gamblers participating.They gambled for more than three hours, and Guo Lingfeng left after winning enough US$20. The master also won more than US$20, which was more than Guo Lingfeng.

In fact, it would not take so long to win $20 with the strength of Guo Lingfeng and that master.However, as a gambler, you must keep a low profile, otherwise, if you are discovered by the casino, you will definitely be included in the list of "unwelcome guests in the casino".So Guo Lingfeng and the master tacitly agreed that they would win five or six rounds and then lose two or three rounds.

As the saying goes, "There are people beyond people, and there is heaven beyond heaven", of course Guo Lingfeng doesn't feel that he is awesome after worshiping the God of Gamblers as his teacher.There are a lot of amazing gamblers in this world, and these unknown gamblers are often the most dangerous—because they are low-key, you have no way of knowing him.

Gao Jin has been included in the list of "guests not welcome in casinos" by the major casinos in Las Vegas, so he can't easily enter the casinos to gamble.So he usually grows flowers, fishes, and shows off his cooking skills at home. He spends four to five hours a day researching stocks and futures.

In addition to being proficient in gambling, Gao Jin is also very good at investing in stocks and futures. Except for a few stocks he holds for a long time, the rest are short-term speculation. He has earned more than 8000 million US dollars in half a year.

Gao Jin also often bets on the peripherals of some football games at bookmakers. The betting amount is about tens of thousands of dollars, with a winning rate of more than 90.00%, and he has won more than 900 million dollars.That's why Guo Lingfeng and Chen Xiaodao admired their master so much—the God of Gamblers is a God of Gamblers even if he doesn't enter the casino!

During this period, Gao Jin took out almost all the funds he could use, borrowed a lot of money from Shangshan and other friends, and spent [-] million US dollars to buy an office building on Wall Street.

Guo Lingfeng knew that this office building was located in the center of Wall Street in New York, and it would continue to appreciate rapidly in the past few years, and this office building could earn a lot of money every year just from the rent.By the timeline of the movie "God of Gamblers 2", probably at the end of 1994, its value will soar to around one billion dollars.Whether it is now or in the future, this office building is Gao Jin's most important asset.

In early June, Guo Lingfeng and Chen Xiaodao bid farewell to Gao Jin. They had already booked tickets for many World Cup matches.Of course, watching football is just a hobby, and they will also complete a big test given to them by Gao Jin, which is to win 6 million US dollars in this World Cup!

本届世界杯共24支球队参加,总共会进行52场比赛。直到1998年世界杯决赛阶段终于扩军为32支球队,那时比赛也增加到了64场。

Gao Jin only allows them to use an initial capital of 52 U.S. dollars, and they have to use this 5000 U.S. dollars to bet on [-] games, and then the [-] U.S. dollars must become [-] million U.S. dollars at the end of the World Cup, otherwise they will fail this exam .

Gao Jin himself didn’t win a lot of money from gambling, firstly because he only gambled for “small fun” and only bought a game every three to five times without spending much thought; secondly because he used less funds than Guo Lingfeng and the others, At most, it is about 900 U.S. dollars each time.So in the past half a year, he won more than 52 million US dollars. If he is serious about gambling and must buy every game, even if he only has an initial bet of 5000 US dollars, it is not difficult to win [-] million US dollars in [-] games.

Guo Lingfeng is considered a "fake fan" in the real world, that is, he only watches the World Cup and the European Cup. He never watches the national football games, mainly because he doesn't want to be mad at death.There are too many jokes satirizing the national football team on the Internet. The one he is most familiar with is "We don't score goals, we are just football porters", and there is another sentence "The Chinese football team is the most stable team in the world. We have been imitated all the time. Never been surpassed!"

Guo Lingfeng was not born in 1990, and some of the information he knew was only found out later on the Internet, so some people said that he could buy scores all the way based on the memory of the traveler, and then win big money all the way, this is pure nonsense!

Even if you are a senior fan, can you remember the scores of all the games in each World Cup?Even if it is regular time, you can't remember all the victories, draws and losses, right?It is estimated that I can remember some classic games, such as Brazil vs. Argentina, and some games of the Italian team.

郭凌峰能记得胜负关系的只有五场比赛,分别是阿根廷小组赛首场0:1输给喀麦隆,哥伦比亚小组赛中0:1输给塞尔维亚,哥伦比亚八分之一决赛中1:2输给喀麦隆,阿根廷八分之一决赛中1:0战胜巴西,还有就是决赛德国1:0战胜了阿根廷。

Except for very important games, other games are basically upsets, and only upsets can make people more impressive.Guo Lingfeng decided that they would use what their master taught them to analyze carefully other games. When encountering these five games, they must make heavy bets and buy scores to fight for high odds. The task of 5000 million US dollars is not easy.
